International Development
Working with communities across the world to identify and mitigate flood and environmental risks, support sustainable development and build resilience.
Working collaboratively to create sustainable solutions worldwide
We work closely with others to deliver multifaceted, multi-hazard flood, coast and environmental risk management projects globally, partnering as one team with like-minded companies and respected local consultants.
Our work is delivered in a highly collaborative manner. We are guided by local expertise, developing the skills and capacity needed to ensure the solutions we deliver are locally appropriate, locally owned and have maximum impact and legacy.
Our expertise includes:
- Flood and climate risk modelling and analytics
- Probabilistic catastrophe modelling and impact assessment
- Impact-based flood forecasting and early warning
- Integrated flood risk management (IFRM)
- Nature-based solutions (NBS)
- Disaster risk financing and insurance
- Decision support systems
- Institutional review, capacity building and training
- Capacity building of national hydromet agencies
Our unique flood impact forecasting system, Flood Foresight®, is enabling humanitarian forecast-based financing and parametric insurance mechanisms across the globe.
Unique innovations and data
For more than 20 years, we have developed some of the most advanced techniques and pioneering innovations that deliver impact, added value and efficiency to the work that we do.
Our work benefits from the unique global datasets we have developed, including our Global Flood Model, which includes high-resolution flood hazard maps and our global event set. We've also developed an advanced impact-based flood forecasting system, Flood Foresight®. Flood Foresight® is a globally-scalable system providing forecast information on rainfall severity, flood inundation and depth footprints, and flood impacts.
